"This may be the last blood swallow snow pigeon in the world, and I got it by chance." Xie Xiaofeng inserted the letterhead into the pigeon's claw ring and released it, "If the Hongxiu girl likes it, after she finishes sending this letter, I will give this pigeon to the girl." ”

"This ...... Not so good......"

"Miss Hongxiu is delicate, compared to a rough person like me, it is too suitable to take care of it."

Besides, of course Xie Xiaofeng knew that a girl like Murong Hongxiu might as well give her thousands of jewels as she liked.

Murong Hongxiu's heart sank, even if the veil covered her face and she couldn't see her expression, she knew that she was in a very happy mood at the moment, "Gongzi Xie." ”

Xie Xiaofeng smiled and raised his fan, "If Miss Hongxiu really wants to thank me, it is better to remove this veil, and it will be a lot of things to separate." ”

Xu was sent a snow pigeon, and Murong Hongxiu's tone and attitude towards Xie Xiaofeng were not as guarded as before, and they obviously had a much better impression.

"Childe, don't hide it, the veil was asked to be worn by my father, and this time I went down to Jiangnan and his old man also told him thousands of instructions, not to remove it, my father's order is difficult to disobey, and I hope that my son will forgive me." Murong Hongxiu said that there was indeed some embarrassment on her face.

"Also, if my family gives birth to a daughter and looks so beautiful, I will not only let her wear a veil, but also will not let her go out at will," Xie Xiaofeng said funny, his style of speech changed, and he asked, "I don't know why Miss Hongxiu went to Jiangnan?" ”

"To be honest, I also received the same secret letter as my son, but the strange thing is that there is no signature on the new letter, and I don't know who sent it, but my father guessed that there must be something strange about this matter, and it happened that the eldest brother went north, so my father sent me to see the situation."

After Xie Xiaofeng listened, he felt that Murong Hongxiu had concealed a lot of what she said, perhaps because her father had concealed it and did not tell her.

After all, no one would let a daughter who never goes out come to Jiangnan because of a letter from an unknown source.

"I see, I didn't expect that we were all guided by the letter writer, but Miss Hongxiu knows what the purpose of the letter writer is?"

Murong Hongxiu shook his head.

"That Hongxiu girl, you came to Jiaxing three days earlier than me and Brother Yifei, did you find anything strange?"

Hongxiu thought for a moment and shook her head, "No, except for a few ordinary cases, I haven't seen anything related at the moment." However, there are more and more outsiders entering and leaving Jiaxing County these days. ”

"Huh?"

"I specifically checked that most of them are refugees who fled the floods from other places, and so far, there are about a few hundred people."

"A few hundred? It should be more difficult to investigate, after all, there are not too many officers and soldiers in Jiaxing. ”

"Well, so, we can only let them go into the city and settle down before making plans."

Xie Xiaofeng nodded, it seemed that there was not much time left for them.

Dinner was some meals made by Ziyi in the Zhang family's kitchen, although many of the food had begun to rot, but some cured meat and vegetables were still edible. After the meal, according to Xie Xiaofeng's instructions, Murong Hongxiu was left to check the Zhang family's accounts and letters, Ziyi and Lu Ying's two maids were in charge of keeping vigil, and Xie Xiaofeng and Shen Yifei entered the secret room of the dry well again.

The candles in the secret room have not been extinguished, and the things have been turned over, and everything that should be looked for has been found, but the most important thing has not been found.

"Could the murderer have been found?" Shen Yifei asked.

Xie Xiaofeng shook his head, "Impossible, if I find it, I'm afraid Miss Zhang will die a long time ago." ”

But where exactly is it hidden?

Xie Xiaofeng was in a hurry.

Because he's in a race against time.

He knew that if he found something first, then he would have the upper hand, and looking at the current situation, I am afraid that a second too late will cause a big incident.

But where will the things be hidden?

Xie Xiaofeng looked up at the statue.

This statue was too big and took up the space of a secret room, and only this statue was not found, so he looked near the statue and found nothing strange.

Could it be that something will be in the body of the statue?

He knocked on the statue, it was solid inside, and it was so heavy that even if he and Shen Yifei worked together, they might not be able to push it.

Maybe it's a place he can't see, like above, like underground.

Xie Xiaofeng looked around every corner, but still didn't find anything strange.

It seems that only the bottom of the statue is the most likely, but it can't be pushed, what should I do?

The martial arts of the Zhang family are not too high, and if things are to be moved, they can't rely on internal force alone, so there must be some mechanism.

"Brother Yifei, do you know any other legends about the Ghost Mother?"

When Shen Yifei heard this, he immediately raised his head and looked at the eyes of the ghost mother, "The eyes of the ghost mother are the same as those of a python. ”

The ghost mother's eyes are the same as those of the python? Boa...... The python's eyes didn't seem to be crimson, Xie Xiaofeng instantly understood what Shen Yifei meant, jumped slightly, and stepped on the shoulder of the ghost mother in two or three strokes with the help of the statue's body.

The light of the candle was not very high, so Xie Xiaofeng couldn't see the ghost mother's eyes clearly, he reached out and touched it, one was soft and a little sticky, and the other was soft, but not sticky.

Interesting.

Xie Xiaofeng smiled.

The eyes of ordinary statues are supposed to be carved in stone, but this one is painted with red wax, and he blows the fire to burn one of the eyes, and it doesn't take long for the ghost mother's eyes to melt, leaving a deep wax oil, and the wax oil gradually spreads, and a black hole appears.

It turned out that the eyes were hollowed out to make it easier to hide things.

Who would have known that only the eyes in such a large statue were empty?

There were two things inside, one was a jade pendant carved with a golden-winged Dapeng statue, which was crystal clear and transparent, it was a good piece of jade, and the other was a roll of parchment with a sketch and a few lines of strange text drawn on it.

Although he didn't know what it was, Xie Xiaofeng had already determined that this was what they wanted.

He reached out and quickly put something into his bosom, ready to melt his second eye.

This eye is sticky, like it was just recently applied, so it's not completely dry yet.

The wax dried, and a hole appeared, but there was nothing in it.

Could it be that someone has taken it? Xie Xiaofeng was puzzled.

Soon he dispelled his suspicions that if he took it, he should take the other as well, and there was no reason to take only one.

Xie Xiaofeng put his hand in, only to find that this hole was shallower than the first one, and it felt like an upside-down disc, according to Miss Hongxiu, all secret rooms have a raised or concave thing as a key, it seems that this is the key to open the mechanism.
